Bill O’Reilly Loses His Cool [Updated]

by Joey deVilla on May 12, 2008

Update, May 13, 2008: The original video got yanked, but I’ve posted another copy in its place.

Here’s a great video that’s making the internet rounds: right-wing attack dog Bill O’Reilly, losing his cool and turning into an eight-year-old upon encountering the phrase “play us out”, a term that anyone who’s been in a TV studio at least a couple of times has encountered. Be warned, he bursts into a potty-mouthed temper tantrum and lets fly with the f-word:

This is from his days on the television news tabloid program Inside Edition, which he hosted from 1989 to 1995. I remember thinking that Inside Edition was about as trashy as television got, but that was well before The O’Reilly Factor.

CBS corporate yanked it. Here’s another link that was working as of this writing:

@darryl: I’ve posted another YouTube video — let’s see how long this one lasts.

That’s busted too.

But there’s a cool remix here:
